You have two choices..... One is that your tree is trying to compensate
for the drop in lighting, which is unbelieveably different from the
outdoors to the indoors.... or you are over watering.....

keep an eye on the leaves... indoors they should grow larger. You might
have to obtain a fluorescent light to put directly over your tree and
set it with a timer for about 18 hours...

Use a wooden skewer in the soil to check for watering. Check the dirtty
end daily and do not water until that end is just damp. Ficus like to
(almost) dry out between waterings

Good luck,

Give it as much warmth as possible. Provide humidity in the air. Do NOT overwater. If it was outside as temperatures came within a few degrees of freezing, you MAY have waited too long.

Good luck.
